From: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx> ARC relocatable object files contain one/more .gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.* sections (collated into .arcextmap in final link). These sections are used by debuggers to display the extension instructions and need-not be loaded by target (hence !SHF_ALLOC) This patch adds the section to modpost's ignore list to avoid the following ======================>8======================== WARNING: vmlinux.o (.gnu.linkonce.arcextmap.inst.3.5.8): unexpected non-allocatable section. Did you forget to use "ax"/"aw" in a .S file? Note that for example <linux/init.h> contains section definitions for use in .S files. ======================>8======================== Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- scripts/mod/modpost.c | 1 + 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/scripts/mod/modpost.c b/scripts/mod/modpost.c index 0d93856..fbbdb8e 100644 --- a/scripts/mod/modpost.c +++ b/scripts/mod/modpost.c @@ -830,6 +830,7 @@ static const char *section_white_list[] = ".toc*", ".xt.prop", /* xtensa */ ".xt.lit", /* xtensa */ + ".arcextmap*", /* arc */ NULL }; -- 1.7.4.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-arch" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
